Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of God, The Most Gracious, The Dispenser of Grace
Have you received the news of the Enveloper? 1 On that day (many) faces will be downcast, 2 labouring, toilworn, 3 Scorched by burning fire, 4 watered at a boiling fountain, 5 They will have no food other than bitter and thorny fruit 6 Which will neither fatten nor avail against hunger. 7 [Other] faces, that Day, will show pleasure. 8 Well-pleased with their endeavour, 9 in a garden sublime, 10 wherein thou wilt hear no empty talk. 11 Therein will be a bubbling spring: 12 In which are high thrones. 13 Goblets set, 14 And cushions set in a row, 15 And silken carpets spread. 16 Look they not at the camels, how they are created? 17 And at the heaven, how it is raised? 18 and how the mountains were firmly fixed? 19 And at the earth, how it is spread out? 20 Remind them; you are surely a reminder. 21 you are not their keeper. 22 Save the one who turns away and disbelieves 23 God shall chastise him with the greatest chastisement. 24 For to Us will be their return; 25 and verily, It is for Us to call them to account. 26
